Trump said the U.S. attacked three nuclear sites in Iran.
The United States struck three nuclear sites in Iran on Saturday, President Donald Trump announced.
B-2 bombers dropped a number of Massive Ordnance Penetrator bombs -- known as "bunker busters" -- during the U.S. mission over Iran, a U.S. official confirmed.
A number of Tomahawk cruise missiles were also fired at targets inside Iran from a U.S. Navy submarine, the official confirmed.
Following the strikes, Trump addressed the nation, calling it a "spectacular military success."
Israel has neutralized around half of Iran's missile launchers, an Israeli military official told ABC News.
The claim comes a week into the conflict between the two countries.
Iran is ready to consider diplomacy if Israel's attacks stop, the Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said after a meeting with the E3 and the EU in Geneva Friday, according a statement posted on Iranian state media.
In the meantime, Iran will continue to exercise its legitimate right to self-defense, Araghchi said.
The U.S. State Department has now provided "information and support" to over 25,000 people seeking guidance regarding the security situation in Israel, the West Bank and Iran, according to spokesperson Tammy Bruce. But, the department would not disclose how many were seeking to leave the Middle East or further break the number down by country,
Bruce encouraged Americans seeking help leaving the region to complete an online crisis intake form to receive updates from the department.
"U.S. citizens in Israel and the West Bank who would like to receive information on departure assistance should fill out the form that this website will take you to," she said, displaying the site. "This crisis intake form will also allow U.S. citizens in Iran to register their information. We do not anticipate offering direct U.S. government assisted departure from Iran. Americans seeking departure should take advantage of existing means to leave."
Bruce also said that as of now, she was not aware of any injuries sustained by American citizens during the conflict.
President Donald Trump said Israel has "very limited capacity" to continue fighting without help from the U.S. and "Europe would not be able to help," when asked about negotiations with Iran on Friday.
Trump reiterated that his decision on U.S. involvement will take "two weeks maximum."
"Sometimes you need toughness to make peace," Trump said.
Trump also said it would be "very hard" to ask Israel to stop its attacks on Iran as different parties pursue diplomacy.
Iran's foreign minister said on Friday that Israel must stop its "crimes and aggression" and added that Iran will not negotiate with any party as long as Israeli attacks continue.
"I think it is very hard to make that request right now," Trump told reporters about asking Israel to stop attacking Iran. "If someone is winning it's harder to do than if someone is losing. But we are ready and willing and able, and have been speaking to Iran and we will see what happens."
Trump also refuted comments made earlier this month by National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard who said there was no evidence that Iran is building a nuclear weapon, saying "she's wrong."
